Sounds like a familiar story of How Renault rescued Nissan and ends up later saved by Nissan in return

Even sounds like Tata story with JLR

WOW McKinsey has been Brought in to Figure out how to rescue US's sales

hopefully with the V60 comeback in the US it would be able to gain the marketshare of sportswagons in US. too bad they are not getting V40 there

The US dealers were crying outloud to Volvo to bring v40 there but somehow their calls are not answered...perhaps McKinsey can make a fast one by saying introduce lah there the V40. LOL

Think it is caused by us govt tight regulation that v40 did not pass hence it was not able to be sold there.

ok, McKinsey can still make a quick buck by stating Bring in 'US's Regulation complied version of V40.

hmmmm how is it that V40 doesn't pass the regulation in US? What regulation?
V40 is as safe as any other Volvo produced currently...no?



or you're trolling me...lolz

More money pumped in to jolt it awake from zombie state in North America

New XC 90 + new V60 cross country will work for those damn Yankees and rednecks. That is all it takes to come back . That and a big marketing promo budget at the Super Bowl, etc.

The new Drive-E engine. It is brilliant. The only thing which annoyed me is the electronic speed limiter set to 210kph.

my exact thought validated by this report

Hi bro, I normally go and buy volvo stuff (but never bought wiper) at V Super Auto, near pandan jaya. since it's near to mrr2, and also they usually reserve 1 or two parking bay in front of their kedai for their customer, so it's easier. No need to pusing2 looking for parking. Do call them first, to check the price and stock.

since you just buying a wiper, why not just search at car parts shop near your house, save time and petrol

hi dude;

I'm a volvo owner ( old model 240 91' injection B200E / 740 92' turbo B230FT still under restore ) normally we look for certain parts shop like VAUTO/VSUPER/ and others for such thing.. my Bosch wiper just cost me around rm30++ a pair.. timing belt original rm67, oil filter original rm25/30 and so on..

FA is official and all charges yeah.. expensive haha..

for mechanic and repairs, u may look for some of our recommended workshop+mechanics.. not expensive of course.. he do 240/740/940 RWD and also s40/s60/s80/xc90 and other volvos.. Mercedes also can.. in Jln Bukit Kuda Klang.. Pm me for more details, and i"ll post some pics here later.. even today I'll go there to replace my long shaft coupling full set ( also called U JOINT ).. my car is already 23 years old, previous owner not care musch of maintenance, so after buy, i need to maintain and replace all worn out parts, oil/seal etc.. just done replace timing belt, alternator ( kaput ), alternator belt, engine oil ( cheap mineral SAE40 is ok for 240 ), oil filter, gearbox oil, light relays and few more..

It's good to see that long lasting parts, just need to replace after 10/15/20/25 years!! thats volvo.. legendary bricks, safety and smooth to drive

VOLVO FOR LIFE!

Guys, I'm planning to get a secondhand XC60. Whats the difference between 3.0 & 2.0 in term of specs, maintenances & problems? Any common issues wt the XC60 that I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am driving xc60 3.0 year 2009, CBU. I never drive 2.0, so I not sure the difference. Power wise for 3.0 , it is more than enough for me. I hardly need to tekan pedal to max. but drink petrol quite a lot la. when the petrol price was rm2.1/L, drive below 3000rpm most of the time (start moving from stop) , around RM0.285/km

Maintenance cost, because it is 20k km/1 year, so if you compare to other brand's 10k/15k services, it is reasonable for a conti car.
IINM 3.0 use more engine oil. Cause there was once after services, the signal shows engine oil critically low, at the end they come to my house and top up. And said they made a mistake, thought mine is 2.0, so add in 2.0's engine oil.
As for the problem, never really had any major problem (already 150k km running).
Minor problem that I faced, or issues you should check for the car
1) both my headlight clip are broken a bit after 5 years, still usable but if you really push the headlight, it will move a bit, change a new one cost RM5000, as long when driving I dont feel the light is goyang-goyang so I dont bother (to change).
2) Engine mounting, there are total 5 engine mountings for my car, 1 was broken, 2 were nearly broke, so I change all 5 of them, cost me RM2000 plus.
3) Wiper, RM269 (ya I know expensive), but that is after 4 years plus using the original wiper.
Thats all the thing I change other than that just normal services every 20k km in between having major services according to schedule. I did all services in federal auto, so if you decide to source from outside, might be cheaper.
